Home on a Friday night...

Surprise surprise! Charlene is home on a Friday night! This is the top news of "Charlene's Daily"! Haha... I am crapping again... Seriously, sometimes it feels good to be home, spending time with myself (I am not egoistic!)... But sometimes you really need to quiet your heart and think and sit through somethings. For me, I finally started reading The Chronicles of Narnia which I bought two weeks ago... Just finished the first chapter of the first story, still a long way to go though...

As for work, I am just discovering some ugly truths every day and they say I learn fast... Now that I have some good colleagues that I can complain too and they being like-minded with me really spares me the agony of "suffering" alone... Haha... But it ain't that bad actually... Except for the bosses ranting, nothing has fazed me much recently. Well, I discovered that almost everyone (seriously everyone!) has some opinion about a certain person and their extent or version is worse than me! Good gracious! I think its really pathetic for a person to have such a reputation...

Anyway, I am enjoying my Friday night... *Smilez*

Talk less, listen more!

"So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath" - James 1:19

I am totally in agreement with the verse above. Call me slow or whatever but recently, I just found out how important it was to listen and talk less. Yes, I may ask for your opinion but I need you to listen as well. When I say listen, it means being a good listener and absorbing what I've been saying, not just listening for the sake of listening and letting my words fall on deaf ears. Right now, I am totally frustrated with a certain someone who hasn't been listening to what I said. How many times do I need to repeat myself before you remember what I say?! It is totally irritating to keep repeating myself. For those of you out there, remember to listen! Sometimes, your personal opinion doesn't matter much, the most important thing is to be a good listener to your friend and that to me is what matters the most...

Monday blues...

I am suffering from a bad bout of Monday blues... I am feeling moody and melancholy... Gosh... no wonder Wendy says I'm a bad case because I've only started working for 3 months. Haha... You can't blame me when the people around me are so boring... Hehe... Anyway, it's no doubt that I survived the day! Yay! 3 cheers for Charlene! Hip hip hurray (*3)! This is real bad... Its only Monday and I'm cranky. Speaking of being cranky, my "beloved" Nokia 6610 is just as cranky, if not even more cranky than me! It switches off on its own when I pick up calls! But today, it didn't! In fact I was on the phone with Hui Juan for 20 minutes and the phone didn't switch itself off! Amazing! It proves me right too. The phone has to "rest" before it functions properly! Haha! I think I am going nuts over my Nokia phone. I just wished that I can use my trusty Samsung but its got a camera so I can't use it at my workplace. Speaking of phones, I want to change my phones! (Screaming aloud in words!!!) I want to change both my Nokia and Samsung! Extravagant? I think so too... I need a non-camera phone on the weekdays and a savvy phone on weekends... I just can't stand being so low tech. Arrgh! No choice...
